Recenzje

"Why is Ukraine in the news? What is so special about the country? Are they really out to get Mr. Trump? Who is Mr. Zelenskyy? These and many other questions are answered in this collection of interviews with the people who know the country inside out. A must read for everyone who is interested in the country, the region, and the international politics of today."-Serhii Plokhy, Professor of Ukrainian History, Harvard University "This is really live history. These stories and discussions were recorded during the dramatic years when Ukraine was fighting on two fronts: defending itself from Russian aggression in the war zone, and domestically against corruption. They reflect facts and the spirit of the time and thus are unique materials which enable an English-language audience to better understand Ukraine and also how the West needs to uphold their own European values. Compiled by Marta Dyczok, one of the most knowledgeable Western scholars on Ukraine, with huge experience of living in Ukraine, travels to all the corners of the country, connections to Ukrainian VIPs but also to ordinary Ukrainian people who are struggling for freedom."-Olexiy Haran, Professor of Comparative Politics, Kyiv-Mohyla Academy "If you're looking for thoughtful treatment of contemporary events in post-Maidan Ukraine by empathetic experts, Ukraine Calling-the book of the podcast-is for you. As the years 2014-2018 recede into history, the voices of lived and reflected experience become all the more valuable."-Roman Waschuk, Canada's Ambassador to Ukraine 2014-2019 "Ukraine Calling is a wide-ranging and captivating collection of key thinkers' and policymakers' takes on the current state of affairs in Ukraine and beyond. The interviews provide a time-capsule like snapshot of the most newsworthy events in recent years through thought-provoking and in-depth analysis by highly respected international experts and insiders. Not only will the content fascinate its readers in its own right, it will also provide a treasure trove of data resources for scholars and students of Ukrainian politics and society."-Olga Onuch, Senior Lecturer in Politics, University of Manchester
